Ok so My car is new to me I bought it off of Ebay, the head was trashed as well as the wiring not finished. this is a 6 bolt swap. into a 2nd gen car.

The problem is I got it to idle but not very well it smells like a butt load of fuel with a very bad miss and very poor throttle response,the fuel smell is so bad it burns my nose. I swapped the injector lines on the ecu like they say to do. I also have the spark plug wires correct also,

however I do not have a full exhaust just a 02 pipe,right off the turbo. and I have read that 2nd cars have 2 O2 sensors, if this is the case would that sound like my problem.

another thing I noticed is there is a plug on the throttle body which looks like an idle switch, which is unplugged, is this normal with a 6 bolt swap or should I find a wire for this???
